Here are some cool links to some of the fish restoration activities in the Klamath Basin:



Chiloquin Dam Removal: http://www.usbr.gov/mp/kbao/multimedia/chiloquin_timelaps.wmv

This is the project I have been working on for the past couple of years. The dam was just removed this past August. We will now be looking at how fish move upriver without the dam there.

National Geographic article on the Klamath River restoration: http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2008/12/klamath-river/rymer-text


Everyone working on the fisheries in the Klamath Basin was excited to have a feature article in the December issue of National Geographic outlining some of the things we are working on. The next big thing is the proposed removal of four old power generating dams on the Klamath River downstream from us and the reintroduction of salmon into the Upper Basin. Hopefully by the time I retire I will be able to walk down the street and catch me a 40 lb Chinook salmon.

This is another big project our office is working on-- the restoration of the Williamson River delta. Here is some video of TNC breaching some of the levees in dramatic fashion.
